Gladys Ave Urban Farm tour

On Saturday, April 23rd, 9:30am, join us for a tour of a local Long Beach farm, that is growing many of the greens found in beachgreens boxes these days.
Gladys Ave Urban Farm is about 3000 sq. feet of urban land plot that has been farmed organically by Charles Moore for almost 20 years. Come and see your food growing, and be inspired by what is possible!
Free for beachgreens customers
Non-beachgreens customers: $7
We ask that you RSVP, as the farm has limited capacity for holding large groups of people, and we need to plan accordingly. Call Aliye at 562.852.6659, or email aliye@beachgreens.com.
Exact location and directions will be disclosed with RSVP.
We will also be sampling some greens from the garden, and local chefs will be on hand.

Garden Hours:

The garden is now CLOSED!

1950 and 1960 Henderson Avenue, Long Beach CA

The Wrigley Community Garden is located at 1950 and 1960 Henderson Ave. This two year project will help in the transformation of Henderson Avenue. We will teach these and other residents basic gardening skills that can be applied to grow their own food here in the demonstration garden and later on in their own homes.

Our mission is to aid in the continued transformation of the Henderson Avenue neighborhood. Our vision is to create a positive, unifying element to a block previously blighted with drug trafficking.
